Default also started installing wiring

http://i60.tinypic.com/szzbt4.jpg

I'm wiring in Detroit motors and vintage air.
Yes, it's a roadster with a/c but I also have a hardtop for it and Borgeson steering. 66, 327/300 4 speed.
It's a lot more fun putting this stuff back in the car than taking it all apart.
